THE WORK AND THE WORKERS

By Editor

Our big press is running day and night to keep up with the demand for the Free Press Extra of the Protestant Magazine.

The first four days of the Free Press campaign resulted in orders for 94,388 copies of the Free Press Extra of the February Protestant Magazine.

Prices of the Free Press Extra of the Protestant Magazine are as follows: Single copy, 5 cents; 5 to 999 copies, 1 cent each; 1,000 copies, $8.00. Agents are selling this Extra for 5 cents.

Before this paper went to press, orders for a second and a third edition of the Free Press Extra of the Protestant Magazine had been placed,—a total of 200,000 copies. Let the good work go on!

At present we are delivering 30,000 copies of the Free Press Extra of the Protestant Magazine per day. Two new sets of plates have just been ordered, the first two sets having been worn out.

Here is a telegram that deserves to be framed: “Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 31, 1915. Review and Herald Publishing Assn., Takoma Park, Washington, D. C. RUSH THIRTY-FIVE THOUSAND ‘PROTESTANT’ EXTRA. Indiana Tract Society.”

The second edition (10,000 copies) of the “War” number of Liberty was so quickly exhausted by orders for the same to be mailed to judges and attorneys in the various conferences, that the publishers have been obliged to print a third edition. Remember $1.00 pays for sending this great number to 20 judges or attorneys. We have the addresses. Order through your tract society.

In the beautiful and practical March Life and Health, just off the press, the Seventh-day Adventist veterans unite in a most interesting “Growing Old Gracefully” symposium. Read “A Young Octogenarian,” by Elder J. N. Loughborough; “A Beautiful Old Age,” by Elder J. O. Corliss; “Conservation of Life,” by Elder H. A. St. John. And do not miss “A British Centenarian,” by A. B. Olsen, M. D., medical superintendent of the Caterham Sanitarium, England; “The Secrets of Vigorous Old Age,” by the editor. Thirteen departments, containing 50 strong articles and other features, such as “The Consultation Room,” “Why Alcohol Is Not Wanted in Our Navy,” “Feeding the Children,” “Diet in Health and Disease.”

Single copy, 10 cents; 20 copies for $1.00, 50 for $2.00. Don’t miss these health messages from our veterans.

The national council of the patriotic order known as the Daughters of Liberty, has petitioned the Senate and House of Representatives in opposition to the three bills now before the House Committee on Post Office and Post Roads, “as representatives of 92,000 members of the Daughters of Liberty, located in twenty-six States.” They followed the wording of our “Petition to Congress.”

Up to January 18 Brother Steen Jensen, of Iowa, had sent in 512 yearly subscriptions for Liberty. Every little while he sends in from 25 to 30. Are there not others who will take up this work? Send to your tract society for Liberty subscription receipt book.

At a mass meeting of 1,500 citizens of Trenton, N. J., assembled in Taylor Opera House on January 31, strong free-press resolutions were adopted and forwarded to the Senate and the House of Representatives. Lieut. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, U. S. A., head of the National Court of the Guardians of Liberty, was the chief speaker.
